I just picked up my seed corn and fertilizer today made a load for the old TT.
The truck gets out of the barn two or three times a year and today is one of them. lol

Sweet!
I've got a '24 TT, long wheelbase that needs some mechanical rehab and a replacement body... so it won't be hauling loads or getting photographed yet...

Thanks for the kind words, This is Dads old truck I just get to play with it.
It makes him smile when he sees it out and doing something, So it's the seed truck at planting time, we use it to haul brush to the pile for burning And in the fall it gets to go to one show per year with a load of ear corn on her. And Dad has hauled all the grate grandkids around the farm too.
If DOT pulls me over I will have a ball with them.
Mike, I don't think she will see the state line again. lol

A bag of that stacked corn now is almost as much as that truck cost new.

I'll try getting a shot or two of the T T and the two WD45's one on the disc and one on the planter. Thinking I'll try getting in the field on Wednesday afternoon. With all the old stuff in the field it looks like 1957 all over again. lol

Looks great to see the old ones working. I hope you don't mind if I copy the lines of your C cab for my 29 A huckster, the grandkids and freinds had a ball riding in it at our plowday last year, but a cab would be nice. Cal in Ct.

Hey Cal, Dad (a old tinnier from back in the day) made this cab in shop. Dad said he might build one for someone if they liked this one, He made this one from memory and a old photo he had.
I have lots of shots of it if you need more just let me know.

Don - I'd really like to see you have DOT numbers on the doors and pull across the scales with a load and see the looks on their faces! Mike
